New Band Members

them both the very best. I had so much fun playing and jamming with those guys. They will always have a special place in the
RFB." We wish them the very best in all future endevors,
Replacing them is Phil Carstens on bass and Cody Middleton on Drums. More on them will be posted on the
website soon.
